Cotto Enoteca Pizzeria Reviews List

Cotto Enoteca Pizzeria

Cotto Enoteca showcases modern Italian cuisine, specializing in authentic VPN certified Neapolitan pizza and comforting house made pastas. The menu is steeped in Italian tradition, though updated with west coast sensibility and is presented in an approachable and informal setting. Chef Alex Tung"s "simple, yet elegant" cuisine features the natural beauty of local, sustainable and seasonal ingredients in an appropriate and sumptuous manner. Showcasing the best ingredients of British Columbia and the traditional techniques of Italy is the overwhelming inspiration behind Cotto Enoteca. The wine program features a considerable "by the glass" offering including an eclectic list of specialty wines focused solely on BC and Italian wineries. The cocktail list spotlights our interpretations of classic Italian inspired libations, while the beer menu includes a few classic Italian selections along with an exciting and highly specific craft beer offering.

"It was our first time to this restaurant and we wanted authentic Italian but didn't want to go all the way downtown.
We had a great table on the patio, excellent service and exceptional food.
Authentic pizzas.....thin crust, no heavy sauce, great flavor.
We will definitely go back! They had 25% off bottles of wine on Mondays as luck would have it...perfect!
The pastas were large portions...perfect for sharing, which is the Italian way!

"Pizza was pretty good, though there are some better pizzas in Vancouver. Highlights included fantastic service and a delicious caramel pudding dessert. For some reason the wine was very overpriced. Would probably come more often if we lived in the area. Overall it's worth checking out."

"Had wanted to try Cotto Enoteca for a while after having driven past a few times. We really enjoyed our dinner, service was excellent and we look forward to trying more menu items next time. The burrata was good, a unique combination of flavors that was really tasty. Seafood tagliatelle was full of fantastic seafood, I had the small version and couldn't finish it, large portions. The only negative was the periodic noise from an obnoxious motorcycle driving past as the patio is very close to the street, unfortunately this is out of the restaurant's control."

"I enjoyed my dining experience at this comfortable restaurant. The tomato sauce is delicious, home made and authentic Italian - so are the meatballs. The pasta is delicious and the pizzas look great . The service is friendly, courteous and attentive. Good recommendations made by the server and when asked, warm delicious bread serves with a home made white bean dip. There is parking which is a bonus.
Will definitely recommend to friends and return to this little gem when I have a hankering for yummy Italian food.

"We went back to Cotto after visiting the former Anducci's many times over the years and were looking forward to seeing the differences but still hoped the Anducci menu was still the core. Although we were a little disappointed with the menu changes ( loved Anducci's), we tried three of their items and were pleased with the presentation, and the quantity."

"Great place for sharing a bunch of yummy dishes! The open kitchen and view of the pizza oven is off to the side of the restaurant, which makes it accessible, but not the main feature. The brick behind the central bar is beautiful and lends an old-world feel to the restaurant's modern decor. Great service and decent portion sizes (especially starter salad and dessert!). A nice place to treat Mom to dinner for a special occasion. Only complaint was the chill coming in from the "heated" patio - could have used a heat lamp inside! Will go back for sure. Also good to note availability of vegetarian options."

"One of our neighbourhood favorites! Cotto's less-travelled Okanagan-focused wine list,many by the glass, is on e of the best around. The new menu items, such as the Ceasar salad, and anitpasto platter, are nice additions. Lacey is a terrific server; friendly, attentive and knowledgable
Can hardly wait for the outdoor fireplace!

"I wanted to try "authentic" Neopolitan Pizza; upon dining at Cotto, I realized I have had it before. 2 of us had the funghi, and 1 had the meatball pizza. We all agreed that though not authentic, we prefer more cheese & toppings. Calamari and caprese salad were tasty. Desserts: 2 of us had the Callebut chocolate tart: rich, creamy, and just the right portion. I loved the Salted Butterscotch Pudding, and had room for it, since I decided to take half of my pizza home, to enjoy with more cheese the next day. Service very friendly and accommodating: one of our party carries her own pasta, and staff was willing to sub it in the dish she ordered. Noisy but still enjoyed ourselves. Would return and request more toppings."

"Great use of the space, this restaurant should do well. Tasty Italian-Style pizza and a modern decor. Was not greated when arrived and our server was MIA for quite a while so the other server picked up where he left off. Perhaps just an off day"

"Good, thin-crust pizzas. If you like thick crust pizzas then this is not the place for you.
Very nice pastas and generous portions too. Great, attentive service.

"Fabulous pizza plaza! I've been told by some real Italians that the pizza is quite authentic to the real thing. We had the Romana (anchovy) and Carne (meat) pizzas and both were excellent. Great thin crust.
The ambiance was warm and romantic and felt intimate. Great for couples.
I did also see some families there so I would say that it is kid-friendly.
I would definitely go back.
